Why? ATIS is a recorded message. Perhaps you mean CTAF?

Not CTAF. That wouldn't do much in a Class C area with multiple
airports. On the recorded ATIS along with winds, runway in use,
contact approach control on XXX.XX it says "Caution, glider operations
in the vicinity of the Tucson VOR 297 radial at 28 miles up to
12,000'. This doesn't do much good as the commercial jets fly right
thru the area and even have a checkpoint near our field. I don't
think that these guys are doing too much "see and avoid" but are
counting on ATC and TCAS. I'm also not as concerned about two PCAS
gliders finding each other as a 200mph heavy metal airliner finding
me.
